I know I've discussed this with most people in PMs but this will be an easy way for everyone to see what everyone else is doing. I will edit this post with everyone's jorbs
Just post what you are interested in doing and how often you are going to do it.
Strongbad - Game reviews, editorials on the industry. Ideally 1-3 articles/week.
i'm not contributing but you guys prob need a way to get the fact that you exist out to other people

Content first, advertising later. You can't advertise a site that has nothing on it.
we've already got some readership - boyah
it's just a few people, but it's a start
anyway, i'd probably be mostly contributing articles and reviews on older games, but i can do some newer ones too if i happen to have them
and also if we ever do expand into other areas of geek culture, i can do animu
reader
maybe i will do a guest column here or there if you would let me as I don't think I would write like weekly so idk if it would be enough for a full time thing. Maybe a quick quip about gaming culture, news. I could also do tv shows if it expands into other parts of geek culture. I do keep up with those quite a bit.
reviews, articles, videos.
what else ya want from me mon
i'm giving the gods and goddesses of prosquid my virginity
Reviews, occasional articles for other sorts of things?
beth gibbons?
I'm pretty sure there needs to be at least one person contributing videos on a consistent basis if you want this to get outside of Boyah. There needs to be entertainment value to draw people in... video game articles are a nickel a dozen
I'll be the resident Sony Fanboy*.
*According to Jarrod.
I CAN BE THE NINTENDO FANBOY OMG

My friend is really close with someone on youtube who does a lot of "lets play" videos and he is interested in contributing to prosquid, so he's going to have a feature for us. That will help a lot, especially since he already has a following.
Reviews for DS, PS3, 360, or PC games (iPhone soon)
Features on Comics, manga, anime, TV, music or movies if need be
Can record audio for short reviews of vidya and send it to mongler for editing to video or I could do it myself with various gameplay videos or my own game recordings. I figure having some gameplay showing instead of just myself would be preferred, lol.
I'm versatile bassir;
yeah i'm pretty sure a lot of us could actually do video reviews, especially if they simply have gameplay footage and we don't have to show our hideous faces
i'd be interested in doing so.
oh and uh idk i am doing that LP of MMX but i'm not very ambitious about it but i can continue doing LPs for Prosquid in the future if i do keep doing them

I'm going to provide comic material and make some merch and post some things I find online.But my friend wants to be the main video guy who does videos reviews and other things. He was the guy who had the Donkey Lady glitch video:

Oh, yeah. That kind of stuff could stir up conversations. n_u
Then again, it
is a bit devious.
we should also consider writing/recording walkthroughs. just an idea. look at the ridiculous traffic Rooster Teeth gets for their "achievement hunter" series.

I COULD CONTRIBUTE EVERYTHING
Seriously though, I am a sponsored competitive gamer (yeah it's guitar hero so what fuck your shit) and I could attempt to write about things of that nature. Though honestly I'm not that immersed in it.
Also I'm going to PAX East so yeah.

Is this Boyah's analogue to Outsider RPG?
No, we already went through our RPG stage

I would love to do little reviews of random good obscure games that I love. hocuspocus;
Also I will be a reader and try to get comment discussions going. akudood;
i wanna be the guy who makes a nother site 2 talk shit about ur site.
I'd like to do stuff like editorials and news articles, or perhaps scouting other sites for cool vidya-related things.
Strongbad, Everything I said in that PM when we first went through this still stands.
between all of us, we've already got a sizable team
as long as we do some advertising, and continue to produce interesting stuff, this should work out great
I can do some game reviews if you want.
Comic reviews y/n
Dear Prosquid and staff,
The only way you are able to make this successful is if you do two things: build a website that is NOT shitty & get Sam to join and support Prosquid.

Well I mean David's main incentive for doing this is a PAX media pass which are surprisingly easy to get. I was recently told I could possibly be getting one for something completely unrelated and very minor. How about that.
regardless, it WOULD be great to have Sam's support, but that's up to her
I could write some articles or something. I think I'm good at that hocuspocus;
Also yes, get sam on board and this will work.
hi i am sam. i will support u r fourm/

People pay to try and tap pretend to vaginas, so just pretend to have one.
What I can contribute will be newsgathering. I don't reckon it'll be that hard to do.
i can let you host the metroidvania game i'm working on if you pay me half the ad revenue
it's pretty much half done and i have people from real life pushing me to finish, and since it's all going smoothly, i will
it's also browser-based which makes things pretty convenient
But it'll probably finish it and forget to share it with anybody, or nobody will care about it.

We're working on it doodthing;
If anybody wants to contribute to the site design feel free, but until then the site will be finished once rawl's and my (mostly rawl's, he's doing a lot of good work) resources will allow it.
Stop your fucking bitching, especially if you're trying to be a part of the site but aren't trying to help. Rawl and I know NOTHING (well rawl does now that he has committed to learning how to do shit) so it's going to be a while without help.
We don't need Boyager help for the finished project. Sure, it's be nice to have since lots of you guys are talented writers, but I have a lot of other people who are interested and just as willing to write as you guys are. Even better, everyone else i know isn't being an asshole about it. Instead of asking when it will be finished, ask what you can do to help, you fucking assholes.
when is it going 2 be finished
lol i just wanted an update because it's been a while, didn't mean to come off as bitchy
just know i'm ready when you are

Okay, yeah it's understandable, it's just annoying when we're actually trying to put work into this site with our limited resources and all of boyah is all "HERP DERP PROCTAPUSATARI ISN'T FINISHED VAPORWARE LOL"
fuck all of you designing a website is fucking hard

seriously, you're not even interested in prosquid, you just want to be an asshole. i really wish jmv would have given certain access to this board. i really didn't want this to turn into a "boyager project" for many reasons, including the one where people who don't even care about the project like to mock it and act like they are affected by the project not happening.
